has historically focused on B2B event venue hire. They wanted to expand into B2C. They acknowledged that many of the existing online platforms for venue hire either automate a lot of the process or aren't very simple to use. They wanted a more human approach. They wanted a web application that made filtering and finding what you're looking for convenient. Their team handle all enquiries personally and negotiates with venues on your behalf rather than just forwarding a request to an email address that may or may not be in use. With Private Venue Hire, you can even pick up the phone and speak to someone.

This full-stack web app is feature-packed.

is a multi-award-winning Indian restaurant group. Its restaurants are fun, vibrant, and eclectic, serving authentic favourites inspired by Delhi’s roadside stalls. Following a recent rebrand, the team wanted to introduce the fun, lively, and eclectic feel of its restaurants to its website. My Delhi is also incredibly proud that its menu is nut-free—a rarity in Indian restaurants—and it has worked hard to reduce other common allergens where possible.

We worked with My Delhi’s branding agency and built a vibrant and interactive website that is true to their brand. The website is filled with motion and unconventional shapes. To emphasise My Delhi’s commitment to reducing common allergens in its restaurants, we built a “dietary filter”, allowing users to remove items from the responsive food menus they cannot eat. Their preferences are stored in the browser’s local storage, allowing them to browse between different menus without updating their preferences with each page load.

We’ve been quiet on here, but we’ve been busy! Every day this week, we will post about one of the cool projects we’ve been working on. First up,

Dakwala is a restaurant in Newcastle upon Tyne inspired by Mumbai’s traditional Khanawal eateries. The name is derived from “postman” and symbolises “a messenger of flavours.” They wanted a premium editorial-looking one-page microsite that captured a vintage feel from when migrants relocated to Bombay in the early 1900s while appearing modern and interactive.

Not long ago, Smith-Cordell Design pledged to design responsibly, acknowledging the environmental implications of our work and striving to offset the carbon footprint resulting from every website we create.

Having just launched our latest project, an e-commerce site, you can read about the steps we've taken to reduce this website's ecological impact.

We will continue to monitor the Flowers from the Grove website traffic to ensure the number of trees planted is suitable.

Today, we're thrilled to report on the first fruits of our commitment to a sustainable web, delivered through completing a brand-new e-commerce website for Flowers from the Grove.

Flowers from the Grove is an independent florist specialising in native Australian flowers in Sydney’s Inner West. They found prospective clients through their social media presence for events and bouquet delivery. They decided it would be challenging to continue to scale their business without a professional website for lead capture and retail sales.

Flowers from the Grove provided a copy of their circular logo and some product photography to Smith-Cordell Design. With only that as a starting point, Smith-Cordell Design expanded on Flowers from the Grove’s brand tool kit by creating alternative logo variations for different screen sizes, selecting new typefaces, and a colour palette that complemented their logo. After copywriting and website design, the interactive and responsive e-commerce website was developed in Webflow. Using Webflow’s API, Smith-Cordell Design created multiple automation flows to reduce manual processes, such as post-sale bookkeeping.

Flowers from the Grove is an independent Sydney-based floristry studio. We specialise in creating beautiful floral arrangements that showcase the beauty of native Australian flowers with a traditional twist.
